    The cricket season started today!


    Because of that and since it's an "Ashes Summer" it's a cricket question - well, two questions actually. In this photo


    1. Name the young man in the middle (top row) looking askance

    2. What was the occasion?

    Well, I think that's Johnny Haynes sitting one in from the right. So I am guessing that's the Fulham team and they played a game against Middlesex, or similar?

    EDIT: Was it a testimonial for Haynes, maybe?

    1. The young man in the middle was Rodney Marsh


    2. Like Surly I thought it was Johnny Hayne's testimonial cricket match against Putney Cricket Club (1969?). But I'm not at all sure - the players in the picture don't match with the dates they were at the Club. Anybody know or have any ideas??
